(3 out of 5 stars)

"Robin Stone's CD "My Heart" dances along the fine edge between folk music, spiritual rock, and funk. Her voice comes through with a rare clarity and power that never relents and never grates either. The music is well put together with changes that keep the listener on their toes and melodies that stick to the soul. Backed by a tight band reminiscent of modern folk-rock powerhouses like Dave Matthews, Robin's provocative songs make the listener groove, dance, smile and think.By far the gems of the disc are "Scattered", a funky piece about the hardships of daily living that features a killer instrumental jam section, and "I Guess", an emotional and sometimes darkly sarcastic ode to thoughtless friends.This disc is a welcome addition to any music collection. Robin Stone is not just another "singer-songwriter chick", she's a dynamo of musical talent and insightful lyric artistry."
